@BaldWraithSimp Server has to process all the data anyway, because it's not just computing stuff solely for you. Only a very small percentage of projectiles make it past a few hundred meters, so eliminating these cases would have an insignificant impact on performance. Bandwidth saving by sending only relevant data to each player poses a big risk of a very unreliable simulation on the client, resulting in players or bullets appearing out of nowhere or teleporting around.

As for the arenas, yes, there will be less bandwidth usage, but server performance will probably stay about the same. This is because there will be more arena matches per server than br matches.

They already did bullet prediction for every bullets that being fired, that means they can detect cheater using aimbot since day-1 !!!

And still DO NOTHING about it ???

@asukojo No they can't. An aimbot doesn't correct projectile trajectory after it was fired. It directly sets the projectile to spawn on an already adjusted trajectory.
